When you talk about good design, what comes to mind would be two people who have been rethinking, reshaping, reinventing the concept of design made contemporary in the Philippine landscape: Rita Nazareno and Gabby Lichauco.
Nazareno/Lichauco at JJA Bespoke opens for its six-week run in JJ Acuna’s new space in Comuna Makati.
The duo of Nazareno/Lichauco will be exhibiting pieces showcased at Singapore Design Week’s Emerge, curated by Suzy Annetta. The pieces include the Pipe Series (Pipe Bench and Floor Lamp hand-woven in black distressed chair cane), Monolith Bench and Hide and Seek Table.

Nazareno/Lichauco have been a consultant with CITEM since 2019 when they curated the Philippine participation at Maison de Objet, Paris, France. Both are founding convenors of the inaugural Benilde Open Design & Art that was just held a month ago. Fast forward to today, the design duo was recently appointed product development specialists for Manila Fame 2024 Design Commune for Home.
The exhibit runs until 8 August 2024 at JJ Acuna Bespoke Studio (Makati) located at Unit 202, Comuna Building A, 238 Pablo Ocampo Sr. Extension, Barangay San Antonio, Makati, Manila 1203 Philippines.
